Hello there!
Long time no blog! Life just kind of ran away with me and blogging took a back seat (even though i've had plenty to blog about!). Teaching is hard work but I love it!
I thought i'd get back into the swing of things with a post i'd been meaning to write for a while; my views on my dry shampoo collection!
I have used 4 different dry shampoos recently - 3 from Batiste, and 1 from Superdrug. I thought I kept the empty bottle of Superdrugs version, but cannot find it, so I have borrowed one from superdrug.com!
From the Batiste range, I have tried the following:
I believe Original & Wild retail for around the 2.99 mark, and XXL Volume £3.99.
From the Superdrug Range I tried 'Away with the Fairies'. This happens to be a more purse friendly alternative, at £1.99, with buy 1 get 2 free at the moment!
Thoughts:
Batiste Original - In short - Love it! This makes my hair feel clean and refreshed - so much so that I am not sure how I lived without it! Sometimes I do get bored of the smell though and crave a different fragrance!
4/5.
Batiste Wild - Does the job as always, and I find the fragrance does last (I can often smell it later on in the day or the morning after i've applied it). It does have a musk smell, which I am not overly keen on, so I would prefer to try another flavour than repurchase this particular one.
3/5.
Batiste XXL Volume - I was desperate to try this, as my hair tends to stay quite flat, but sadly this just made my hair sticky and cakey - sadly not a repurchase. It seems to work much better on other people though!
2/5.
Superdrug Away with the Fairies - This had a nice fresh fragrance, but I felt it didn't leave my hair feeling as fresh and clean as Batiste - Bastise felt a little 'thicker' if that makes any sense? I wouldnt repurchase simply because I feel Batiste does a better job for my hair type, but it is a complete bargian at the moment!
2/5.
So overall, Batiste Original is the clear winner - I would like to try some other fragrances to hopefully find a staple product for my dressing table!
I have not tried Tresemme Instant Refresh Dry Shampoo, but have just noticed it is on offer at Superdrug for £2.35 rather than £4.79 - bargain!
I'd love to hear about your favourites or dislikes, let me know!
Thankyou for reading, and I promise to get back in the swing of blogging!

I always use Batiste dry shampoos, but I was in two minds the other day, while shopping to try the Superdrug verisons. But I think I'll stick to the good old Batiste! lol Great post!!

I can never seem to grasp how to use batiste for voulume, bit of a hair novice! But I love it for putting on my fridge as it seems to go greasy about half an hour after it's been washed!
